Project description:Neutrophils are sentinel immune cells with essential roles for our anti-microbial defense. Most of our knowledge on neutrophil trafficking and tissue navigation derived from models of sterile inflammation and infection. Here, we analyzed allergen-challenged mouse tissues and discovered that degranulating mast cells (MCs) trap living neutrophils inside them. MCs release the attractant leukotriene B4 to re-route neutrophils toward them, thus exploiting a chemotactic system which neutrophils normally use for intercellular communication. Neutrophils die as a consequence of mast cell intracellular trap (MIT) formation, but their undigested material remains stored inside MC vacuoles over days. MCs can use this debris to increase their functional and metabolic fitness. Additionally, they can also exocytose active neutrophilic compounds with a time delay (nexocytosis) and elicit a pro-inflammatory type 1 interferon response in surrounding macrophages. Together, our study highlights neutrophil trapping and nexocytosis as mast cell-dependent processes, which may relay neutrophilic features over the course of chronic allergic inflammation.

Project description:It is not understood, how mechanical signals influence the behavior and action of circulating cells in our body. Previous studies showed that the process of migration through narrow slits might enhance lifespan of polymorpho-nuclear cells (PMN / neutrophil). But it is unknown, how the mechanical signal is received, relayed, and translated into specific phenotype shift in PMN. Here we investigated whether compressional force affects defense system of circulating lymphocytes by increasing their killing ability during migration through narrow endothelial junctions. To decipher the receiving and transducing components of this mechanical signal relay process, we performed gene expression analysis between transmigrated and non-transmigrated neutrophils. Comparison of early gene-expression pattern of transmigrated and non-transmigrated neutrophils revealed a huge change in gene expression profile. Molecular and genetic analysis of the proteins revealed from gene-expression analysis led us to understand the mechanism of mechanical signal relay from the neutrophil membrane to bacterial-killing machinery. As neutrophils are most abundant and immediate-responding circulating immune cells in our body, our study advances the path for understanding the general process of mechano-transduction, and mechano-modulatory applications with mechanically enhanced neutrophils.

Project description:Degranulating mast cells (MCs) release inflammatory mediators (proteins, lipids, small molecules), including chemokines and chemoattractants, which recruit other immune cells in tissues. Neutrophils can initiate self-amplifying swarming responses via intercellular communication through the lipid leukotriene B4 (LTB4). Initially discovered by two-photon intravital microscopy in mice and confocal live cell imaging, we show that degranulating MCs release LTB4 and exploit this attractant by re-directing neutrophils to MCs. In a process generally termed entosis, neutrophil cluster formation around MCs results in the trapping of living neutrophils inside MC vacuoles in vivo and in vitro. Thus, we identify a novel cell-in-cell structure between MCs and neutrophils, which we term “Mast Cell Intracellular Trap” (MIT). Compared to MCs, MITs revealed improved MC metabolism and recovery after degranulation. This leads to several benefits for MITs: (1) they can be more efficiently re-stimulated than MCs, (2) they show improved survival under nutrient limitation, and (3) MITs store neutrophil proteins, DNA and effector molecules, which can be released after re-stimulation. In this context, we compare the secretome (secreted proteins) of MCs and MITs (in cell culture) before and subsequent to degranulation via label-free nanoLC-MS. In summary, mast cells trap and cannibalize swarming neutrophils, which supply nutrients, proteins and inflammatory molecules to recovering MCs. Our studies may have potential implications for chronically activated MCs in MC-related immune disorders.

Project description:Neutrophil recruitment to inflammation sites purportedly depends on sequential waves of chemoattractants. Current models propose that leukotriene B(4) (LTB(4)), a secondary chemoattractant secreted by neutrophils in response to primary chemoattractants such as formyl peptides, is important in initiating the inflammation process. In this study we demonstrate that LTB(4) plays a central role in neutrophil activation and migration to formyl peptides. We show that LTB(4) production dramatically amplifies formyl peptide-mediated neutrophil polarization and chemotaxis by regulating specific signaling pathways acting upstream of actin polymerization and MyoII phosphorylation. Importantly, by analyzing the migration of neutrophils isolated from wild-type mice and mice lacking the formyl peptide receptor 1, we demonstrate that LTB(4) acts as a signal to relay information from cell to cell over long distances. Together, our findings imply that LTB(4) is a signal-relay molecule that exquisitely regulates neutrophil chemotaxis to formyl peptides, which are produced at the core of inflammation sites.

Project description:Mast cells are hematopoietic cells that reside preferentially in tissues exposed to internal and external environments. Mast cells sense immunological, inflammatory and environmental stimuli, and can be activated to release granules and generate inflammatory mediators. Mast cell-derived products confer protection against snake venoms and some parasite infections. Aberrant activation of mast cells is a major contributor to human pathology, including allergy, asthma and adverse drug reactions. Their strict tissue location has largely impeded the isolation of large numbers of primary mast cell for further analysis. To better understand the biology of mast cells, we analyzed the proteome of primary human and mouse mast cells by quantitative mass spectrometry. We identified a mast cell-specific protein signature that was conserved from mouse to man. Compared to a comprehensive set of other immune cell lineages, proteome analysis identified a unique and distant mast cell cluster. The mast cell signature included proteins governing granule biosynthesis and secretion, as well as proteoglycan- and neurotransmitter metabolism. Proteome conservation across species suggests evolutionary maintenance of mast cell functions.

Project description:Type 2 immune responses are crucial for protection against helminth infections and for the maintenance of tissue homeostasis, yet the underlying mechanisms of immune activation remain incompletely understood. Here, we study the role of mast cells in type 2 immunity. While the number of lamina propria residing mast cells (termed LPMCs hereinafter) remained stable, intraepithelial mast cells (termed IEMCs hereinafter) markedly expanded during the course of type 2 responses. We uncovered a new type 2 response mechanism depending on the crosstalk between mast cells and epithelial cells, and defined the function of intraepithelial mast cells.
